Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a protecting garment usable for example in hairdressing salons or other similar application, such as beauty parlors, the medical field, etc . . . , which is designed to protect a person's body while a treatment is applied to his or her head (hair, face, etc . . . ).
  • the garment according to the invention is composed of an overall or cape which is wrapped around the customer's body, and of a towel which is adaptable on said overall, said garment being characterized in that:
  • the overall or cape is a one-piece garment, the geometrical shape of which is such as to allow a sufficient development to protect efficiently the user, said garment having a neck opening to allow the user's head through,
  • the towel at least is made from a complex material containing an absorbing non-woven material, and is triangular-shaped, said towel being provided along one of the sides of the triangle with means for securing it on the overall, at the level of the shoulders, at the back of the neck opening.
  • the overall and towel are both made from the same material which is a complex material consisting first of a non-woven layer capable of absorbing humidity and second, a waterproof film, bonded to the aforesaid non-woven material;
  • the two faces constituted by the film are placed in facing relationship, the absorbing face being, for the overall, on the user's side, whereas for the towel, it is external;
  • the towel may be provided with pre-traced markings in the form of lines which are parallel to the base of the triangle and to the height, said lines acting as a guide during the hair-cutting operation.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagrammatical plan view of an overall and towel combination according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of a towel according to the invention.
  • the garment according to the invention is composed of an overall (1) and of a towel (2) equipped with means for temporarily joining them one to the other.
  • the overall (1) is parallelepipedal-shaped, the dimensions of which are sufficient for wrapping around the user (such as for example a rectangle of 1.50 m width and 1.60 m length).
  • This piece of material comprises a slit (3) with, in the center part, an opening (4) for the user's head. Said slit (3) makes the garment easier to use but is not a necessity.
  • the towel (2) As for the towel (2), this is triangular-shaped, with, close to its base (5), means (not shown) such as adhesive means, or pressing-on fastening means, etc . . . permitting the fastening thereof onto the surface of the overall at the back of the neck opening.
  • the dimensions of the towel may vary as a function of the applications, a towel having the shape of a triangle of 1.10 m base and 0.55 m height being normally suitable in most cases.
  • the two elements of the garment according to the invention are preferably produced from a complex material consisting of a film (7) bonded to a non-woven layer (6) of cotton wool type.
  • the film ensures waterproofness whereas the non-woven layer absorbs the humidity, for example during the hair shampoo.
  • the absorbing part in non-woven material (6) has slightly smaller dimensions than the film (7).
  • the overall When used, the overall is placed over the user so that the film is on the outside, this permitting the fastening of the towel thereon in such a way that the absorbing part (6) is on the outside.
  • the towel (2) comprises vertical (8) and horizontal (9) line marks parallel one to the other. Said lines form a grid which constitutes some sort of a pattern guiding the hair cutting.
  • the garment according to the invention offers many advantages insofar as it can be produced from rather inexpensive materials, hence be disposable after every use. It is furthermore extremely efficient, easy to use, adaptable to any type of person whatever their build.
  • the overall is of relatively simple design, it could also be produced as an overall of conventional design, the towel, in this case being still rectangular-shaped and made from a complex material having one waterproof face and one absorbing face.
  • Such pockets may be transparent and provided, for example, on the arms side.
  • the fastening means are provided only along the base of the triangle forming the towel, they could also be provided along each side, which would make it possible to reverse it during use, and even to use it several times.
